A. All Way Stop Request at Grand Avenue and Muscatel Avenue
SUMMARY
The City of Rosemead has received a resident request to evaluate the intersection of Grand Avenue and
Muscatel Avenue and determine if the intersection qualifies for the installation of an all-way stop. The resident
expressed concern for vehicles speeding through the area along Grand Avenue and has requested that an
all-way stop or other traffic calming measures be installed at this location. In response to this request and on
behalf of the City, engineering staff completed a traffic review to determine if an all-way stop was warranted
to be installed at the intersection of Grand Avenue and Muscatel Avenue, and recommended appropriate
measures.
After a thorough review of existing field and traffic conditions and per the guidelines in the California Manual
on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CAMUTCD), California Vehicle Code (CVC), and based on engineering
judgement, it was determined that the intersection of Grand Avenue and Muscatel Avenue does not meet the
requirements for the installation of an all-way stop. However, it was determined that this area along Grand
Avenue and Muscatel Avenue would benefit from the installation of other traffic calming measures.
CEQA: Not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Traffic Commission recommend the following actions:
1. INSTALL ADDITIONAL RED CURB: Install 20-ft of additional red curb at the southeast corner of
the intersection at Muscatel Avenue and Grand Avenue.
a. Install 20-Ft of additional red curb at the southeast corner of Grand Avenue and Muscatel
Avenue, along the south side of Grand Avenue. Install the red curb east of the existing 10-
ft of red curb adjacent to the fire hydrant, for a total of 30-ft of red curb.
b. It is important to note that parking is allowed along Grand Avenue east of the location
where red curb would be installed. Installing red curb along this stretch of curb will not
affect parking for residents living in the area, as there is plenty of parking east and south
of the intersection.
2. INSTALL RED CURB: Install 30-ft of red curb at the southwest corner of the intersection at
Muscatel Avenue and Grand Avenue.
